Chapter 94 Using a Concert Hall Instead of a Recording Studio to Produce the Soundtrack?

"Dagu Glacier?"

Three or four people blurted out questions.

The loudest among them was Fang Rong.

He had seen pictures there.

I heard that it is one of the areas with the highest altitude in the direction of Jiuzhaigou Valley in western Sichuan. It is extremely easy to produce altitude sickness.

It was windy and cold and the road was slippery.

Almost everyone has to fall down a few times.

He is almost fifty, what should he do?

But the position of director of photography was obtained by his secretary Moji He, and the script is very creative. The chief director is Chen Xiao.

In terms of face and career, he doesn't want to quit.

That’s all.

I'll work hard and start going to the gym tonight, and let my wife cook more nutritious dishes to strengthen my body.

Hey, he used to urge actors to work out, but he never thought that one day he would have to work out for filming.

Just as he lowered his head and thought about his fitness plan, Chen Xiao had already continued to arrange work.

"Yes, it's Dagu Glacier. The second planet is covered in ice and snow. I plan to shoot in late March or early April. Please arrange for Director Wang to make an appointment. In addition, there are some filming locations in other places. I wrote it in the document , please send someone to make an appointment in time.”

"OK."

Wang Rui flipped through the preparation and shooting plans in front of him and saw that the work requirements were clearly stated on the third page.

I sighed silently in my heart, it was really comfortable to hang out with Director Chen, and the work contents were all listed for him according to time.

Unlike some crews, which are all in the east and west.

but……

Wang Rui pursed his lips and touched his head.

Why do I suddenly feel like a tool?

Chen Xiao continued to say to him: "In addition to the corn farm and the local scenery, there is also an important place in the filming location, the space capsule. This part of the scene will be shot in the film and television city. Please rent the venue before next week, and start from next week. By the end of March, we will send people to build three separate cabins.”

Wang Rui replied in a somewhat weak tone: "Yeah, okay."

How to build a space capsule?

Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will also stay in the film and television city during this month. While making music, I will contact the Science and Technology Department with you to guide the scene construction."

Wang Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

It’s okay if you have Director Chen and a dedicated person to guide you.

"Well, thank you, Director Chen." He nodded, and looked at Chen Xiao as if something suddenly occurred to him, "If you want to make music, do you need to rent a recording studio?"

"Need not."

Wang Rui nodded. It seemed that Director Chen just wanted to write the score in this half month. After shooting, go to the recording studio at the post-production base to produce.

Just when he thought this, he saw...

Chen Xiao turned to look at the sound effects assistant, "Help me borrow the concert hall for half a month."

Wang Rui's breath froze.

Concert hall? ?

The sound assistant was also a bit unresponsive.

The chief director wants a big concert hall to make music?

This is unbelievable to say the least.

She asked in confusion: "Yin, concert hall?"

"right."

"Okay, okay."

The assistant director on the side rubbed his chin.

He knew that Chen Xiao could compose music.

After all, "My Heart Will Go On" has been on the major music charts for many days.

But the problem is, Chen Xiao is good at expressing emotions.

He believes that Chen Xiao can do a good job in scoring family scenes, but many scenes in "Interstellar" require a strong science fiction atmosphere.

Some soundtracks can make the audience feel nervous and worried, and some can make them feel suspended in a high-dimensional space, or even feel weightless.

Can one person really master so many styles? Director Chen, please don’t be too arrogant.

"Director Chen, why don't we hire an extra sound designer? This movie requires a variety of styles of music, and it's quite hard for you to complete it yourself."

"Thank you, Director Liu. I am in good health and not tired."

The assistant director pursed his lips.

Since Chen Xiao decisively vetoed it, it was hard for him to say anything.

But if it doesn’t work then, I still have to recommend finding a sound designer again.

After all, this is a co-production of the Ministry of Culture and Science and Technology.

With such a good opportunity, he also hopes to make the best movie possible and become famous in one go.

Chen Xiao explained a few more words to the art director and sound effects assistant, then looked at the casting director.

Just as he was about to speak, Fang Rong interrupted: "Director Chen, let me interrupt while I'm about to change the topic."

"You say."

"I just read the script, which involves general relativity and quantum mechanics. I don't quite understand it, hahaha."

Fang Rong smiled heartily and then touched the script, "I can't understand it, but there are viewers who can understand it. Have you checked with a physicist to confirm the physical knowledge and scientific conjectures in the script, such as the idea that gravity can span dimensions?"

"Well, I found Professor Ning Jilin. My principle is that you can have conjectures, but they must be derived from science and cannot violate the existing laws of physics and understanding of the universe."

"You mean Professor Ning Jilin?" Fang Rong's eyes trembled slightly.

"right."

Seeing Fang Rong's strange expression, Wang Duan asked curiously: "Director Fang, is there anything special about Professor Ning Jilin?"

With respect on his face, Fang Rong said seriously: "A friend of mine once interviewed him. He is a theoretical physicist at Tsinghua University and can be regarded as a top scholar and leader in the field of black hole research in the world. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a gasp of air-conditioning in the conference room.

A global leader in the field of black holes.

These three words sound respectable.

Such a senior actually came to serve as their physics instructor. Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

Even Chen Xiao was slightly startled.

The kind old man just now turned out to be a giant in physics.

The Ministry of Science and Technology is really ruthless.

Invite such a person directly.

It seems that he himself wants to convey some message through this movie, otherwise why would he waste time reading the script for them.

The conference room was quiet for a few seconds.

Fang Rong breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Now that Professor Ning has read the script, I'm relieved."

Chen Xiao smiled awkwardly, "I can't say I've seen it. He should be watching it right next door."

As he spoke, he pointed behind him.

The conference room fell into dead silence again.

The physics boss hasn’t finished reviewing the script yet?

So when they are meeting here, isn't it like they are planning how to spend money before they even find a job?

The casting director looked embarrassed and slowly said: "Professor Ning must be very rigorous. Director Chen writes the script based on his imagination. But Professor Ning starts from science. If he overturns every plot... we are not in vain. Have you planned your schedule?”

As he said that, he secretly glanced at Chen Xiao's face and said softly, "How about we suspend the meeting first?"

Before Chen Xiao could say anything, art director Wang Ruixian refused:

"Don't be so timid! We are making a science fiction film, not a science education film. There is no need to strictly follow existing knowledge."

The casting director pursed his lips.

Wang Duan is worthy of being an artist, but he is less rigorous and his thinking is wild and unconstrained.

But science fiction movies also have the word "science" in them, so you can't completely ignore science, right?

He whispered: "But we have invited Professor Ning, just in case he asks to change multiple places..."

Chen Xiao smiled easily and said, "It's okay. It won't change much. Let's continue the meeting."

Seeing what the chief director said, the casting director couldn't say anything more and continued the meeting.
